Tea Is Good, Books Are Better

Raven is too badass to play games with her siblings. We discuss Christmas shopping and accidentally do a minute-long ad for Amazon Prime. In Seraphina, Basind becomes more and more sus, there's a rumour about Seraphina going around the castle, and our brains are too small to understand each other. The Queen may be in denial, we finally figure out what a Daanite is, and Viridius makes a return. Also, we learn more about Glisselda's mother, Princess Dionne, and we are unpleasantly surprised, and Glisselda sees more of Seraphina than she's supposed to. There are more bad guys for Seraphina to deal with, we can't figure out whether the book is medieval or steampunk, Phina's father finally opens up to his daughter, we want to go to a medieval fair, we discover a smorgasbord of additional content in the back of the book, and Orma says goodbye...
